How to consume peanut butter, rice cake cracker without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of lean protein to your snack, such as a hard-boiled egg, a slice of turkey, or some tofu. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate a small portion of healthy fats like avocado or a few almonds. These can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grain or Multi-Grain Rice Cakes

Choose rice cakes that are made from whole grains or have seeds incorporated, as they typically have a lower impact on blood sugar.

Add Fiber

Top your rice cake with a fiber-rich food like chia seeds or flaxseeds. Fiber can slow digestion and absorption.

Portion Control

Be mindful of the portion size of both the peanut butter and rice cakes. Keeping portions small can help control glucose spikes.

Eat Slowly

Take your time eating and chew thoroughly. Eating slowly can give your body more time to process the carbohydrates.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water or herbal tea with your snack to aid digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Exercise Moderately

A short walk or light exercise after eating can help lower blood sugar levels by using glucose for energy.

Opt for Natural Peanut Butter

Choose peanut butter without added sugars or oils, as these can contribute to blood sugar spikes.

Balance with Vegetables

Add a small side of non-starchy vegetables like cucumber slices or bell pepper strips to increase fiber and nutrient intake.
